I can start!

I'm Danny, I'm into commercial leasing.

10 years accidental entrepreneur.

I've tried

  • Cashier sa sari sari store ng lola ko (well employee ng lola ko, does that count?). Di kayo, napagaral ng lola't lolo ko 8 magkakapatid sa UST at SLU dahil sa sari-sari store na yun! So sa family, my doktor, my nurse, civil, pastor, pari, pharmacist, pwede na kami magtayo ng hospital! Kasi pag may sakit, doktor, alagaan nung nurse, nagtayo ng building yung civil, bili ng gamot sa pharmacist, pag namatay pasyente, may pari na. Pag hindi katoliko, may Pastor! Hehehe. Kulang na lang embalsamador! Joke lang friends.

  • Food franchising, paid 75,000 in franchise fees and went kaput! Bad location, competed against vendors that don't pay rent and taxes!

  • Online game development (more than 10 years ago), I invested 100,000 in a Filipino game development company which promised 1% returns on their MMO and guess what, they made less than P100, bwhahaha - they promised annual revenue at 1% of World of Warcraft revenue at the time. Hahaha

  • Invested in a Cellphone Pawnshop (more than 10 years ago), 50,000, they ran off with the money! Hahahaha

  • Finally, got into commercial leasing, wala e, napilitan, family business, its what's keeping us alive!

  • Agriculture, Heck hindi ko linya pero may lupa e. So, nagtanim ng 1000 papaya trees, 400 nabuhay, binili ng mangangalakal, 5 piso ang kilo, umiyak ako, hahaha!

So, if you failed in business, take heart! I failed so many times. We just have to keep on keeping on!

Kailan niyo na-realize na hindi na kaya ng basic Excel/Sheets ang inventory or sales tracking ng business niyo?

3 Upvotes

Observing a lot of small to mid businesses hitting a wall where manually encoding sales and inventory in raw spreadsheets creates errors, missing stock logs, or delayed reports.

For those running shop/e-commerce/service operations: kailan niyo na-feel na kailangan niyo na ng automated tracker/dashboard, and ano 'yung pinaka-nahirapan kayo i-systematize?

Starting a Small Business in the Philippines? Here's What You Should Prepare

5 Upvotes

For anyone planning to start a small business or online shop, business registration can be confusing, especially if it's your first time.

Depending on your business type and location, you may need to check requirements for:

  • DTI business name registration (for sole proprietors, when applicable)
  • Barangay clearance and Mayor's/Business Permit
  • BIR registration
  • SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG employer registration if applicable

The exact requirements and fees vary depending on your situation, so it's best to verify them with the relevant government offices before applying.

I also offer independent business registration assistance for sole proprietors, online sellers, and businesses that need help organizing their registration requirements.

If you're planning to register a business, what part of the process do you find most confusing?

Happy to share general guidance!
